Android Question Unwanted fullscreen

[tpakis]

I have an old app that I was using theme holo and had fullscreen false and include title false. Now I set the theme to material light and without any change to fullscreen, the notification bar disappears. What am I doing wrong? I want the bar to stay.

Also another question if I set the theme to material light what will happen if someone uses the app on a froyo device?

Thank you!!

Can you post your manifest editor code?

The correct way to set a light theme is:

SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, "@style/LightTheme")
CreateResource(values-v20, theme.xml,
<resources>
  <style
  name="LightTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Material.Light">
  </style>
</resources>
)
CreateResource(values-v14, theme.xml,
<resources>
  <style
  name="LightTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
  </style>
</resources>
)

This will set the light theme on Android 4+ devices and the default theme on Android 2.x devices. Note that Android 2 is mostly irrelevant now.

Hello Erel and thank you for your answer! I tried it but the problem still remains. The complete manifest is this:

1. Can you post a screenshot of your app?

2. Are you sure that the #FullScreen attribute is set to False?

 

[tpakis]

Yes it's set to False and works fine if i set the theme to Holo.Light

The screenshot (from emulator, same on lg g3 android 5 both)

 

[Erel]

Please try to reproduce it in a small project and upload the project.

I made a new empty project

Which version of android.jar are you using under Tools - Configure Paths? I have encountered this issue when using a beta platform. Test it with android-24.

 

[tpakis]

I was using android-L, now i downloaded the android-24 and that did the trick. Thank you!!
